will be on the throne someday, but might also have a turn at another career before that happens.
According to the , Desmond MacCarthy, who owns Norfolk’s Wiveton Hall Cafe, said that when George was shown the wood-fired pizza oven in the cafe, he reportedly exclaimed, “That’s what I want to do when I grow up!”
Prince George, 11, visited the cafe with a group that included his mother, . “They came here with their friends, because Sandringham isn’t that far away,” MacCarthy said.
In addition to Sandringham (where the royal family typically spends Christmas), Kate and also have a country home, Anmer Hall, nearby.

The Wales family are known to enjoy pizza — George himself was even seen eating a slice in 2023 that July. In 2018, Princess Kate said that her eldest two children, Prince George and , now 9, love making pizza dough (, now 6, was born that year). In 2019, while at a royal engagement, she revealed her favorite pizza topping was bacon, reports, and last year, during , Kate and William, both 42, ordered 12 pizzas to thank volunteers at Dowlais Rugby Club.
The family also makes homemade pizzas, and, while preparing food for the Commonwealth Big Lunch in 2018, Kate said while at St. Luke’s Community Centre that pizza was their favorite meal. “I’ve done that with George and Charlotte — making pizza dough,” she said, per . “They love it because they can get their hands messy.”
Speaking of messy, during an , Kate teased William and his messy pizza habit, calling her husband a “nightmare” for eating pizza on their couch. Spotting the bright yellow couches in the room, William teased, “Keep the pizza off the sofas!” to which Kate playfully responded, “You’re a nightmare with that!”
Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis apparently love to cook, the now Princess of Wales said during a visit to Lavender Primary School in 2019 (when she was still the Duchess of Cambridge). “She was telling us and how they cook for her,” said Matthew Kleiner-Mann, the school’s headmaster. They made cheesy pasta the other day. One stirs the flour, one puts the milk and butter in. And they make salads and stuff.”
During an in 2023, Princess Kate revealed that, when it’s her turn to cook dinner, she goes for “a curry or teriyaki salmon, something like that,” she said. Prince William interjected that he “can’t do too much spice,” and that when his wife cooks, she has to add the flavor “in gently, because otherwise I get too sweaty. It’s not a nice sight!”
Kate also that she likes to make a cake for each of her three kids’ birthdays, saying that “It’s become a bit of a tradition that I stay up ‘til midnight with ridiculous amounts of cake mix and icing and I make far too much. But I love it.”
Unfortunately for George, he won’t be able to work at the Wiveton Hall Cafe specifically — it’s closing next month after 17 years in business. But, as Robert Hardman wrote in his book , Prince George — unlike his grandfather before him — might have more freedom in his path before he takes up full-time royal duties someday.
“Whereas Charles III had his future mapped out without consultation, Prince William had a significant degree of autonomy in his choice of university education, his engagement with the armed forces and his introduction to regular royal duties,” Hardman wrote. “He is determined that Prince George should have a similar if not greater involvement in the way he develops his own royal role.”
